Why NETFLIX WHYYYY

I was so happy to see just 8 episodes and heard so much about this drama that I watched the entire series at one go but the ending was sooooo annoying! like why would u stop the series there! Besides the 2nd season is stuck bcz of pandemic and the waiting is killing me! Other than that, I m just happy to live in a world where love alarm doesn't exist! It's definitely the worst thing ever. Specially when there's a shield!

Not bad, not bad indeed

It could have easily been a movie or an episode on black mirror. It was great but i found it too silent and draggy as it went on. However the chemistry between kim JoJo and rich model boy was lit

There will be a second season, relax

I can't believe how many reviews are only basing it off the cliffhanger. From what I could see, the webtoon goes way past where the first season ended, so just sit back and wait for season 2 and stop your bellyaching about the cliffhanger, they're super common in Asian dramas.

That being said, the story is fascinating. It has a big tech-fiction edge to it that is relatable to all of us that are so addicted to our phones and apps. The main characters are all great and very well cast. The feels are there, so much feels and the chemistry between the 2 main characters is like a fire that burns inside you! If you're a fan of k-dramas you'll love this one for sure, and if you aren't maybe wait until it's completed before you watch it or you'll just whine about the cliffhanger, or you know just go into it knowing you'll have a juicy cliffhanger that will get you excited for season 2.

Good one but Sun Oh and Jojo should end up together

If Sun Oh and Jojo don't end up together, then there is basically no justice in k drama land and ultimately it will become the worst show for sure. Sun Oh and Jojo must remain together. They have major chemistry.

Great 1st season; Truly awful 2nd season

I won't go into detail why the first season is phenomenal, especially the firts half of it is amazing, but oh my god....I waited so so long for the 2nd season and it was a huge disaster. The direction it takes is nonsensical and it missed so many great chances. And as others have pointed out, no character is really likeable. I watched the last half of the 2nd season in 1.5x speed, just to not waste even more of my time. Honestly, just watch the first season and dream up your own ending.

Smooth Opening and Smooth Ending for Season 1

Of Course! there will be season 2. K-dramas usually have 16 or more episodes. Netflix added only 8 and the story is still incomplete. This show had one of the most interesting concept I've ever seen. K-dramas in general revolve around romance, a back story and A unique concept. But Love Alarm in general is a very beautiful blend of futuristic technology in daily life of youngsters when an app called Love alarm (JoAlarm) is launched which tells a person about how many people in a 10m radius love them. As expected this causes several beautiful phenomenon and some violence and sad happenings which is shown in the show very thoughtfully. People who watch K-dramas must watch Love Alarm. while others can give it a try.

Depicting Complexities of Relationships

Though having the elements of typical k-drama, Love Alarm stands out and is unique that addresses issues like mental health and negative impact of social media addiction.

The most admirable thing about this drama is it's depiction of complexities of relationships and ever changing human emotions and feelings. This drama exhibits how over dependence on technologies can create further problems. It was good to see how the central characters were making efforts instead of solely relying on what "Love Alarm" app was suggesting.

Watching Love Alarm felt like a emotional rollercoaster ride. Though an enjoyable good drama, some confusion still remains in the end. However the ending is not bad at all as many are claiming. It's just that you'll feel sad for some character who has a bittersweet ending. Overall it's a good to watch drama.

Beautiful

The episodes are gorgeous and the story that unravels is beautifully tragic and cute at the same time. You fall in love with the 3 main characters and want nothing more than to see them each happy.

Beautiful story; Season 2 was not bad

The story is quite beautiful on how the main lead (Kim Jojo) struggled with her relationships because of her own issues within herself. This series showed how our childhood experiences/ relationships can affect our future relationships throughout our lives. It also showed different phases of love. First phase (first boyfriend) was a good friend/ acquaintance, second phase (second bf) from an infatuation or toxic love, third phase (third bf) was a non-toxic relationship with peace. Many are disappointed with the ending but it is realistic. If I were Kim Jojo, I would pick a non-toxic relationship whose values are compatible to mine. Nevertheless, Kim Jojo and Sun oh's on-screen chemistry was undeniably strong.

Peaked halfway

Show peaked halfway. Had such a good start and an amazing relationship between the two main characters. Then it fell off towards the end of season one. Definitely doesn't make me want to watch season 2 or even finish season one.

Disaster ending

Too heartless and biased. A series that you'll be stressed watching and waiting for nothing. One side judgement and self centered. Careless.

Worst kdrama ever😖

I really loved season 1 and so I waited for season 2 for nearly two freaking years hoping to see Jojo and Sun oh ending up together but the things turned out to be different. Kim Jojo acted too cold towards Sun oh and Hye Yeong showed how selfish a friend can become. He only cared about how he feels, he didn't care at all about Sun oh. I just don't understand why Jojo did that to Sun oh. Love alarm was my favourite until season 2 came. Season 2 ruined my excitement and and my two years of waiting.
